Aspírian Educational Consulting Firm Guiding students to select the Right Fit college for their educational goals and aspirations

Public Announcement

After more than 20 years of working in higher education field , I’m beginning a new chapter. I’ll be stepping away from Aspirian Educational Consulting Firm as I pursue other business adventures.

Building Aspirian and supporting students, families, and institutions has been an incredible privilege. As part of this transition, I’m open to conversations with individuals or organizations interested in acquiring or merging with Aspirian Educational Consulting Firm and continuing its mission. I will be available for three months after the acquisition to help consult to ensure a smooth transition.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Aspirian over the years. Your trust and partnership have meant more than words can express.

With gratitude,
Rachel Fretz-Cianci
Founder, Aspirian Educational Consulting Firm

⚽️ Still playing in my 40s — because once an athlete, always an athlete!

As a previous student-athlete, I know what it takes to compete, train, and balance academics with athletics. That’s why I’m passionate about helping high school student-athletes find their best-fit college programs.

I guide families through the college recruitment process — from building a strong student-athlete profile to connecting with the right schools and coaches.

I’m now accepting student-athlete clients for one-on-one guidance.

If your student dreams of playing at the next level while finding the right academic fit, let’s connect!

✍️ College Essay Season Starts Now!
Here’s Step 1 You Can’t Skip…

Before you write a single word of your college essay, take a breath and remember this:

➡️ The Common App gives you 7 prompts… but they’re all really asking one big question:

“What experience, value, or moment reveals who you are — and why it matters?”

That’s it. Your job isn’t to write an English paper or list your accomplishments.
Your job is to share something true, insightful, and uniquely you.

✅ Start by reflecting on moments that shaped you.
✅ Think about how you’ve changed, what you’ve learned, and what drives you today.
✅ Jot down a few stories — even the small ones. Often, they’re the most powerful.

💡 This step is the key to writing an essay that’s not just good, but unforgettable.

Big Changes Are Coming to College Admissions for 2025–2026!

Applying to college this year? Here’s what you need to know:

•Competition is UP — students are applying to more schools than ever

•SAT/ACT are BACK at top colleges like Stanford and Cornell

•The Common App’s “Community Disruption” section is now “Challenges and Circumstances” — with a shorter word limit

•Authenticity matters more than perfection

•Legacy admissions are being phased out in some states (yes, really!)

This year is all about clarity, authenticity, and preparation.

That’s where Aspirian comes in.

From college list building to essay coaching, we’re here to guide you every step of the way.

One of the main reasons I founded Aspirian Educational Consulting Firm was to help students make the right college choice the first time.

Each year, thousands of students transfer schools due to poor planning, lack of support, or misalignment with their goals—often resulting in hidden financial, emotional, and academic costs.

My mission is to change that.

I’ve created a visual chart that outlines:
• The top reasons students transfer
• The percentage of students impacted
• The hidden costs families don’t see coming
